Abstract
Photoelectrochemical water splitting (PEC) is believed as a promising approach to address the energy and environmental crisis. Here, we adopted a simple two-step method to synthesize bare Sb2S3 film, and then employed a Bi element doping strategy to improve the PEC performance of obtained bare Sb2S3. The obtained Bi-Sb2S3 exhibited an increased photocurrent density, 2.8 mA cm−2 at 1.23 VRHE and a negative shift of onset potential, compared to bare Sb2S3. The enhancement in PEC performance of Bi-Sb2S3 could be attributed to the expanded light absorption range, increased electron carrier concentration and improved charge transfer ability.
